Getting ready for the Messiah US Version so I have been practicing my soderig on some old computer boards. I have a 1/64 " sodering tip, but cannot find anything smaller in my area. I also cannot find any wires close to the 31/32 AWG. For now I am just cutting up some telephone wire and using the little wires inside to practice with but they are a little big for the bios legs. Does anyone know where I can get the needed iron tip and wires online? Any sites out there to purchase these items. Any info would be great. I am in the US if that makes a difference.Thanks

In the UK we have RS Components which I think is known as Radio Shack over there. RS have a website over here at http://rswww.com

So I guess Radio Shack will have one over there.

RS Components is Radio Spares - nothing to do with Radio Shack!

Ok, if that is so then just check out RS components and Radio Shack both can supply the parts you need.

RS Components can supply anything to do with soldering; I know this because I order from them weekly at work for my department. If you ask them nicely they can even supply 5 catalogues containing various soldering parts and test gear, also its available on CD Rom.

Charlie, I know you spend every breathing minute in this forum, but if you are going to criticise someone for trying to help at least make it constructive its not rocket science.
